Low Budget Full Range 8" or 10"

Could someone recommend a good 8 or 10 inch full range speaker? I want to make a 2-way system with only the full range and a subwoofer. I don't have any intention of going high end.

The average available investment is US$50.00 per unit.

I was thinking about the SB Acoustics SB20FRPC30-8 or Visation BG20, would either one be a good choice?


Thanks!
 
I can recommend Sica fullranges. They have copper faraday rings.

If 6 inch for example

But it must be close to back wall or better back wall and side wall.
OP doesn't need as it will be paired with a sub (or two? )

The SB20 is a very good driver for the price.

I wouldn't go with 5" or 6'5", as you get all the inconvenience of a FR without much of its strengths. Small FR don't reach low but do reach higher with less beaming. 8" drivers do reach lower, but will start beaming earlier. The 5~6.5" don't reach low and beam early. Not my favorite if used alone.

Another option, if the room permits it (they need space away from walls), would be the Nola Brio clones. Dual 3", one is OB, paired with a sub or better yet, two.
